This publication is produced in occasion of the solo exhibition of Japanese woman artist Yayoi Kusama at the Centre Pompidou from October 2011 to January 2012.
'The Centre Pompidou is presenting the first French retrospective dedicated to the Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama: chronologically following her career through 150 works created between 1949 and 2001, the exhibition tracks the major moments in the life of the artist and illustrates the protean character (paintings, sculptures, environments, performances) of a collection of works which Kusama has herself described as “obsessional”. Strongly rooted in a childhood memory, a hallucination from which she developed the polka dot motif, this unclassified work still has significant influence on the cotemporary scene.' - from Centre Pompidou's website.
Includes a bibliography.
